(October 19, 2001) Mugabe Engages Libyan Special Unit-- Zimbabwe Independent (Harare) by Brian Hungwe

A CRACK unit of Libyan intelligence officers is in the country to beef up President Robert Mugabe's security and intelligence system as the nation lurches towards the 2002 presidential election, now only five months away, the Zimbabwe Independent has learnt.

Intelligence sources told the Independent this week that over 20 Libyan nationals were booked at a local hotel and could be seen driving around in government vehicles. They are understood to be re-training intelligence personnel and President Mugabe's close security unit.

I hear these guys will get Zimbabwe passports too. That means they may eventually be terrorizing people other than the Zimbabwean opposition.

The situation in Zimbabwe seems to go from unbelievably bad to incredibly even worse. The choice those who are not Mugabe supporters face is revolt and be executed and villified or accept it and be executed and villified. Were I somehow stucjk there I would not die on my knees begging but I guess the facade of civilization seems to keep some from taking this step. They still think that someone will put effective pressure on Mugabe when all the comenwealth will do is tsk tsk.

Stay well - stay safe - Stay armed - Victory

Gadaafi seems to be ingratiating himself to a lot of these guys.

Libya Reinforces Troops to Guard President Ange-Felix Patasse Nairobi - Libyan reinforcements arrived in the Central African Republic capital, Bangui, on Monday to help President Ange-Felix Patasse put down a revolt by dissident troops loyal to the sacked army chief, Gen. Francois Bozize, news organisations reported.

Radio France International announced that some 80 heavily armed Libyan troops arrived to join another 100 of their colleagues guarding the president. There were reports of city residents fleeing sporadic fighting - which continued overnight in the city of some 524,000 people - but no casualties were announced.

(October 19, 2001) Mugabe Engages Libyan Special Unit-- Zimbabwe Independent (Harare) by Brian Hungwe )--The Daily Telegraph, quoting intelligence sources, said there was a growing number of intelligence officers turning against Mugabe, forcing him to turn elsewhere for protection.

The Libyans were to be issued with Zimbabwean passports by the Registrar-General's office to help Mugabe's presidential election campaign, the paper said.

Other press reports from South Africa suggest that Pagad, a Libyan-funded vigilante group which campaigns against drug lords on the Cape Flats, would be unleashed on the white commercial farmers in a terror campaign.

The development takes place at a time when the country has mortgaged itself to Libyans after it sought a US$340 million loan to purchase fuel.

The Independent reported recently that the Libyans were going to acquire major stakes in the country's two financial institutions and a major hotel group in addition to receiving 8 000ha of land for industrial and farming purposes.

The only question in my mind is why the New Australian phrased the headline as a question.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

I don't know why. Maybe after 9-11 you'd think anything about promoting Muslim terrorists would be big news.
I've found however, the headline writers often misrepresent the content of articles.

*********More sinister is the fact that Gadaafi insisted on calling into conclave Harare's small community of Indian Muslims, telling them that they must assist Mugabe's plans by declaring a jihad (holy war) to throw the whites out. If they did not do this, he told the Muslim elders, he would bring in strong arm men from the Pagad movement in Cape Town with which he had close links. There has long been speculation that Gadaafi might have links to Pagad, an extremist Muslim vigilante movement often linked to bombings and murders in the Cape, including bomb attacks on US-linked enterprises such as the Planet Hollywood restaurant on the Cape waterfront, but this is the first open confirmation of the fact. **********

Some people need to be oppressed.

Who's on the short list?

[Travis McGee]

Are we on this case aggressively? Is Qaddafi's intervention being challenged on the ground?

[MARTIAL MONK]

Something is in the works. I have a lot of friends who are Zim ex-pats. Suddenly everyone is networking to help newly arrived friends/family. The visas don't make sense.

For example; One Indian family I know of was robbed in Harare. Usual scenario, dogs poisoned, razor wire cut, 2 guards killed, son beaten, daughter beaten and nearly raped. Within a week they were in the U.S. on a "K" visa, with guarantees of renewal. Someone turned the spigot on.

The most important thing here is what you don't see. I sense G.W. is working under the surface. Its his style. I think Mugabe will be out by the end of the year and Gadaffi will be sent packing (minus his $700 million+-)

Who's on the short list?Can't go there but suffice it to say the end of Western Colonialism and return to home rule has been an unmitigated disaster for Africa.
